It's tough to work through the early mornings, the late nights, and saying "no" to going out with your friends when you know you have work to get done.

It's the little things that will give you a mental edge over your complacency and deterrence from getting the important work done.

I've personally hit roadblocks in my paths that instill large amounts of doubt and complacency from getting done what needs to be done. I've learned to harness small key areas that provide me with that mental edge to push through adversity.


Stay late at the office and being the one to shut the lights off and lock up -

Mental Edge. 

Starting your day early at the gym when you know everyone else is sleeping - 

Mental Edge.

Being the bigger person,  first one to apologize in a disagreement with someone else - 

Mental Edge.


Establish reasons for yourself in why you're going to push through the adversity and succeed. 

Create these moments for yourself - pushing through scenarios that you know other people wouldn't be able to handle nor get through.

A conversation for the ages.

A conversation with a man who has been through so much - and now has utilized those former hardships and applied the takeaways to his life in ways more than one.

Liam & I were former football teammates. He's the kind of person that I had always viewed as one of the most dedicated and hardworking men on the field.

Throughout his current time serving in the Canadian military, martial arts ventures, background in boxing, and the relationships with his girlfriend and family, he's established the ground for a riveting and insightful conversation that time just seemed to dissipate into. 

Liam states his insight for the importance of leadership in your own life, how to navigate the ups and downs of adversity that we all face, and goes in detail with some his amazing stories and lessons from his personal life. 


Adversity,

Leadership,

Building Yourself Up.


Liam goes in depth on how to break the foundation of flaws that seemed to be consuming him, and how he came out stronger than ever - completing milestones that he never thought he could have in his life. He explains what was revealed to him on the other side of breaking that foundation.

Everything you're looking for is on the other side of this breakthrough that you might not even know that you have.

It's easy to wait.

Easy to wait on amending that relationship with your family member,

Easy to wait on getting your fitness back on track,

Easy to wait on getting your finances in order,

Easy to wait to make that HUGE jump you've been waiting on for a while.

Looking back on the last year at all of the hardships, beautiful moments, and progress I've made in various areas of my life - it's all circled back to one common theme that I share with you in this episode. It's easy to wait around on the tasks and achievements we want to pursue. 

In the end, as you & I wait, it'll only make it much more difficult to get started.



Procrastination is Assassination of Destination.

Your path may feel like it's fogged,

Not sure where your next step should be.

Recall why you started, and what your end destination is going to look like.

There are going to be times along your journey, the one you're thinking of right now, that is going to have to be fueled by the faith that you're going to make it.

Whether that may be your fitness journey, amending a family/partner relationship, hunting down that next job promotion, or the rollercoaster journey that is business - there will be checkpoints of frustration and a fogged-path. 

You don't always have to see your next step. Follow the edges of your path, and lean into the blind faith that you're going to make it.

I've had quite a few conversations with people lately.

Conversations about the future,

Sculpting,

Plotting,

Creating.

These various conversations have brought me to the realization, of which, has been a main proponent in creating better habits within the short term. Since I've been holding these regular "macro" conversations (the big picture), it's created disciplines in the "micro".

It's common to have the conversation on which bar to go to this Friday night, which place next weekend, and the trip at the end of the month.

What do you plan to have happen for your life in ten years down the road?

Set your goal so large,

So distinct,

So intimidating,

That you'll get that "sly" smirk from other people.

You may not believe, yourself, that you'll hit your goal. By the time you've reached the time horizon you've set for yourself and your projection, you may not have hit it, but you'll definitely be much closer than had you not set the bar so high.

I use the example in the episode,

If you set a goal to lose ten pounds within thirty days, you may not lose the ten (but, if you do, GREAT. It'll be a worthwhile feeling), otherwise you've lost atleast six or seven.

On the other hand, if you made it a goal to lose five pounds over the same time period, you'll probably lose three.

Over-set your own expectations. Watch how far you'll be able to make it.

Easter long-weekend.

I hope you enjoyed your time with family, friends, and much needed time to rest & recouperate.

Attended a beautiful service on Sunday morning. It got myself thinking what a beautiful time it is for a new-beginning.

Revisit the promises you've made to yourself coming into January 2024. It's difficult to stay consistent with, but that's why anything worth having takes effort.

I've reflected, after this Easter-weekend, how great of a time it is to recreate yourself and revisit the promises you made for yourself coming into the first-third of 2024.

What adjustments do you need to make for the path you're on?

When you search to be more patient,

Disciplined,

Faithful,

Courageous,

Or any other trait that you feel like you need in your life, you'll be challenged with situations that will force you to take on that trait.

I used to be the one, too, that would pray to become more disciplined - assuming that I would magically grasp the power to obtain that trait.

But,

I've found that specific situations will become present in my life that will challenge me to stay disciplined in order to make it through.

Actively searching to be more courageous? You'll be faced with situations that require courage. 

Actively searching to be more patient? You'll be faced with situations that require patience.

Actively searching to be forgiving? You'll be faced with situations that require forgiveness.


The pain of the situations you're being confronted by,

Is directly proportional to the growth that you're searching for.

I found myself deep in thought, reminiscing,

Driving my way back home late from my office in Calgary.

I had thought back to a time when things were so much more simple, less worries, less hardship that life has now thrown at you and I in adulthood.

I thought back to what I dreamed about being when I'd grow up. Between the ages of five to eight - dreaming ahead to the seemingly-incomprehensible age of twenty-five (of which seemed to come around faster than expected).

My dream was to be in a career that required me to develop, design and build cars for people to buy.

Countless hours spent with lego, K'nex, little assemblies letting my innocent younger-self fall into a daze. I'd bethinking of the days that have now come so much faster than I thought. 

Through all of the life experiences you and I have faced, I've found that passion for developing and building, has never actually subsided.

Instead of vehicles as my purpose,

I've found my purpose for developing and building up other people. 

I've recorded this episode as gateway-support into helping you through the "lost" feeling you may be going through. 


Think back to your younger self,

What passions have carried through the winding years?

How has your purpose changed?
